Abstract: The study intends to update the literary view regarding the inventory financing service (IFS) and discuss the logistic service provider's (LSP) role in this type of service, presenting research and business opportunities in this niche. The study shows that the IFS theme focused on the LSP was relatively neglected by the services, operations and supply chain literature since the research had a greater focus on the financial issues correlated to the risks of the operation. The article contributes by clarifying the role of LSP in offering this service and pointing out gaps that can be better explored in future research.
